Laura L.
My daughter had her wisdom teeth removed at Alliston Orthodontics & Oral Surgery (Oct 2026). We had such a great experience. Dr. Gioulos did an excellent job and explained what was going to happen very well. The team, including Lisa and Cathy, was fantastic. The explanations provided were clear and thorough and the support was much appreciated. Everything went very smoothly and we couldn't be more pleased with the service received.
Stacy-ann W.

Lisa K.
I had an excellent experience at Alliston Oral surgery. Dr. Gioulus, his assistant and front desk staff were all very kind and provided excellent service. I would highly recommend this clinic
Seema M.
I did my Invisalign treatment here and have nothing but positive things to say! All the staff from the front desk team to the orthodontic team are very polite, personable, and very knowledge. My treatment was approx. 1.5 years and it went by with no issues and I love my results. Thank you to the team!
Laura
Alliston Orthodontics has an amazing team of staff and Doctors. Dr. Shapiro and Dr. Gioulos have such amazing care and compassion for their patients. It's not always easy to watch your children have to undergo any surgery weather minor or more invasive. The comfort my son and I received today left an everlasting impression and trust in the wonderful team at Aliston Orthodontics. Dr. Gioulous is very kind and compassionate and I appreciate the time and dedication to taking such wonderful care of my son and making us feel very comfortable with the procedure and aftercare. Dr. Shapiro is very informative and has a great way of making the parent and patient feel confident and comfortable in the process of Orthodontic treatment. I highly recommend this office. Thank u to all the staff for all the patience and understanding and amazing care that u all provide to your patients. It's truly appreciated! Laura McIlravey and Family
Roblox M.
Very kind, patient, and friendly. Dr. Shapiro and his team have been great with both of my kids, who have braces. We’ve had an excellent experience at this clinic.
Laura A.
Reception is very accommodating, kind and friendly. So far a great experience for my son, the orthodontists that he has been seen by are very supportive and professional. Highly recommend!
Rochelle R.
Love it here! The team is very organized, running a tight schedule. I don't believe we've ever waited to be seen more than 5 mins, if that. The office is clean and the staff is extremely friendly and professional. Most of all I really appreciate the time Dr Shapiro took to explain in detail my sons needs, set realistic expectations, and answer all my questions. Dr Lin and the rest of the team have been great with our follow ups and treatment is going well. They even check in in-between appts to ensure positive progress, they really care. If you're in the neighbouring towns and looking for an Orthodontist, they are definitely the choice! Thanks Team!
Patricia B.
